"Aight! You got me! I'm interested in Paralogos.. or maybe a Whiffling, and I want my own!.. but.. how should I go and do this..?"
Is this you? Is this what you're thinking about? Well, buddy, pal, chum, friendo, allow us to give you a few headers to get ahead on this wonderful world of Lingua.
Let's start from the beginning. Library Records. You're gonna need one... is what I used to say. Nowadays, you're good once you got an account on this site.
Bureaucratic nonsense? Well.. kinda? But it's to help us do a good job. It's where you keep track of the Paralogos or Whifflings you got, of the INK and/or Caps you'll undoubtedly earn.. We'll get back to you on that one. Regardless, it's important so that there's no doubt about what is rightfully yours. So go forth and register for an account! Afterwards, link it to your dA through your settings page.
Just a headsup? Once you linked your account to dA, you can change up your profile in the same settings page! There's a bunch of options there to make your profile look fancy!
Okay, so you got that account, linked to dA.. But yeah, after all that.. Now you're probably wondering where to GET a Paralogos.
Well, the easiest step is to just head on over to the Sales page. There's plenty of 'em in there for fairly cheap and we do our best to keep it up to date. You can also check the LogosLibrary account on site to swiftly find more characters up for sale or up for grabs in events!
Ah, but we're hearing ya- you can't afford one, right? You simply don't have a PayPal account to pay with.. Or there's no funds on it.. It happens. Fortunately, there are other ways to get your own Paralogos, even if it might be a bit more work.
We hold raffles every now and then where you can get a free Paralogos. It definitely requires a bit of luck, and it's not a guarantee. You could also check the Selling, Trading and Other Journals section in the dA gallery. There's people who might be willing to trade for or give away a Paralogos.
But.. your best bet to get your own Paralogos or Whiffling is probably making artwork or writing stories to gain you some INK or Caps, depending on what you're going for. If you do any of the monthly prompts, it's even with a bonus on top. Ah yes, INK and Caps... We bet you're now even more curious, and we'll get to it in a moment. But while on the subject, some Paralogos can be found in the Paralogos Preserve, currently a part of the LogosLibrary userpage, where we attempt to find a home for Paralogos.. But, right, INK, let's get to it.
INK, or 
, is the primary currency for the Paralogos Dictionary. Caps 
is the primary currency for Whifflings. Drawing or writing seems to be the best course of action for Earning Ink. With that INK, you can buy things over at the Ink Market. And guess what's an option there? MYO books. MYO stands for Make-Your-Own. Having a book means you can design your own Paralogos and keep it for yourself!
There's a process to it, though- We'd suggest you read up on the MYO Approval Process. Yep! It's more bureaucratic stuff, but it's all to keep things running properly. ^^;
Now then, assuming you followed the process, claimed a word and got the approval, it's time to get to designing. For that, we have the Design Guidelines. There's even a tutorial on how to draw a Paralogos on dA. You can always ask the help of an Official Artist for your custom Paralogos or a Whiffling, but that is very likely to cost you.
Of course, you're always free to join our Discord server, if you want help or just got questions.. or want to hang out with the community!
So, that's that then. You got your account, your own Paralogos or a Whiffling.. What next? Well, the events and prompts are always something to go with, but in the end, your Paralogos is your Paralogos. Your Whiffling is your Whiffling. We can't really tell you what to do with a new character. It's up to you to define who they are, what they do.
If you want more to do, there's always teaching your paralogos magic or developing your paralogos's wisdom.. the aforementioned Monthly Prompts.. Or check if you've gotten any new achievements..? Or perhaps read up on the lore? If anything, there's plenty to do on our wonderful World of Lingua. We're working on more activities for Whifflings too!
We hope you have a great time. :)
